1861 census COMPLETED
« on: Wednesday 04 April 18 22:33 BST (UK) »
Hi Can anyone help me find my ancestors is the 1861 census please

George Still dob 1826, pob Old Machar
Jane/Jean Still (nee Lumsden) dob 1819, pob Keithhall
John Still dob 1854, pob Inverurie
George Still dob 1857, pob Inverurie
James Still dob 1859, pob Inverurie

I have them in 1851 (single Inverurie and Keithhall)
And in 1871 (Inverurie)

I have searched SP, but I can't seem to find them

Thank you

On the transcription I am looking at, Jane is down as June:

George Still 35 railway porter
June Still 39
John Still 6
George Still 3
James Still 1

Address: Heigh Street, Inverurie

FindMyPast has them at High St Inverurie, with the surname transcribed as Stile. I'll attach the transcript.

FreeCEN has them listed correctly, as George Still, 35, railway porter, born Old Machar; Jane Still, 39, born Keithhall; John, 6; George, 3; and John, 1; all born in Inverurie.

They are listed as Stell on SP. A wildcard search for st*l* would have found them.
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.
